Not being a coder, I still resort to what must be considered atrocious
kludges by developers, etc.
In my own example, the color shift is written into the Lyx file using the
line
\color white
which is restored with a
\color default
(or is left alone if a new paragraph--defaults must kick in for each
paragraph).
So my kludge solution would be to use mc to edit the file, replacing all
"\color white" phrases with "\color black"--which gives me the out to change
back without using the word "default."
If I really had nothing better to do, I'd figure out a sed expression doing
the same. But I'm a hobbyist, and those slashes and spaces always screw me
up when playing with sed...
